More quotes by William Shakespeare
This passion, and the death of a dear friend, would go near to make a man look sad.
William Shakespeare
Friendship is full of dregs.
William Shakespeare
Fat paunches have lean pates, and dainty bits Make rich the ribs, but backrout quite the wits.
William Shakespeare
Call me what instrument you will, though you can fret me, you cannot play upon me.
William Shakespeare
Conceal me what I am, and be my aid for such disguise as haply shall become the form of my intent.
William Shakespeare
Nothing 'gainst Times scythe can make defence.
William Shakespeare
I have not slept. Between the acting of a dreadful thing And the first motion, all the interim is Like a phantasma, or a hideous dream: The Genius and the mortal instruments Are then in council and the state of man, Like to a little kingdom, suffers then The nature of an insurrection.
William Shakespeare
In thy youth wast as true a lover, As ever sighed upon a midnight pillow
William Shakespeare
To fear the foe, since fear oppresseth strength, Gives, in your weakness, strength unto your foe, And so your follies fight against yourself. Fear, and be slain--so worse can come to fight And fight and die is death destroying death, Where fearing dying pays death servile breath.
William Shakespeare
O Death, made proud with pure and princely beauty!
William Shakespeare
I am sure, Though you can guess what temperance should be, You know not what it is.
William Shakespeare
I am bewitched with the rogue's company. If the rascal have not given me medicines to make me love him, I'll be hanged.
William Shakespeare
My salad days, When I was green in judgment.
William Shakespeare
The peace of heaven is theirs that lift their swords, in such a just and charitable war.
William Shakespeare
I never yet did hear, That the bruis'd heart was pierced through the ear
William Shakespeare
Reflection is the business of man a sense of his state is his first duty: but who remembereth himself in joy? Is it not in mercy then that sorrow is allotted unto us?
William Shakespeare
These violent delights have violent ends.
William Shakespeare
Though I look old, yet I am strong and lusty for in my youth I never did apply hot and rebellious liquors in my blood and did not, with unbashful forehead, woo the means of weakness and debility: therefore my age is as a lusty winter, frosty but kindly.
William Shakespeare
My purpose is, indeed, a horse of that color.
William Shakespeare
To whom God will, there be the victory.
William Shakespeare
